The man who is courageous in any matter except physical danger is also thought ill of. Indifference to public opinion, for example, is regarded as a challenge, and the public does what it can to punish the man who dares to flout its authority. All this is quite opposite to what it should be.
Every form of courage, whether in men or women, should be admired as much as physical courage is admired in a soldier.
